Empirical H- and K-band Limb Darkening for 31 CHARA Stars: A Near-Infrared Benchmark for Stellar-Atmosphere Models
Narsireddy Anugu, John D. Monnier, Antoine Mérand +9
Limb darkening, the decrease in stellar intensity from the disk center to the limb, encodes the temperature structure and opacity of stellar atmospheres. Direct spatially resolved…

Multiple outflows and delayed ejections revealed by early imaging of novae
Elias Aydi, John D. Monnier, Antoine Mérand +39
Novae are thermonuclear eruptions on accreting white dwarfs in interacting binaries. Although most of the accreted envelope is expelled, the mechanism -- impulsive ejection, multip…
